What Influences Your Vote?
46 Answers
As we head towards the 2015 General Election, what are the factors that influence your choice? Is it personalities, policies, how your ancestors voted or something else?
You may feel strongest say about immigration, but what if you are influenced by more issues from another party?
A lot of questions there but has the nation become more trivial in their decision-making process?

For myself I will vote for the party that shows an awareness of the fragile state of our economy and an awareness that we have been out-priced and out-educated by many countries, especially in the far east.
And all the while, at the same time we are borrowing money, not just to pay for the failed welfare state experiment, but also to pay for the interest on the vast sums of money we have borrowed already!
Labour will pay off the public sector unions with new pay and conditions settlements because that is wht the unions expect. Taxation and inflation will rise as a result (believe me because I've lived through it twice before) and our grandchildren will be saddled with an ever-rising national debt.
I vote Conservative, not because I am one of the Etonian stereotypes not latched onto by the champagne socialists in Fleet Street, but because the Labour party and their bosses in the TUC, for deeply embedded ideological reasons will never be able to look global reality in the eye.
They are idealistically incapable of seeing the world as it is, and as long as they can't, I'd have to say, if I was one of Labour's core voters, I would have to ask how long the absurdity of the welfare state was going to last.
